**FAMILY LOOK FORWARD TO SECOND MILLPORT TRIP

TICKETS STILL AVAILABLE FOR HOSPICE SPONSORED MILLPORT BIKE RIDE ON SATURDAY 26 AUGUST 2017**

The St Margaret of Scotland Hospice Sponsored Millport Bike Ride will take place on the later date this year of Saturday, 26 August 2017.

And for one family who are taking part, it will be their second trip around the island this summer.

Geraldine Winter and co had planned to take on the cycle – in memory of her dad Jimmy McVey, who passed away at the Hospice in April – on its earlier advertised date in June.

Her nephew Rory Deeny, one of Jimmy’s nine grandchildren, had also set up a JustGiving page to gather sponsorship.

So when the event was rescheduled, the family – including Rory’s mum Clare – decided that they would take part on both dates.

They set off a few weeks ago on the first of their trips Doon the Watter to the isle of Cumbrae for a very special, and emotionally-tinged, day out.

The youngest member of the party was five-year-old Ryan Patrick Winter – Jimmy’s great grandson – and Geraldine’s disabled sister Gilly McVey also took part.

Geraldine, from Bishopbriggs, said: “We decided just to do it ourselves because we were already raising funds.

“My sister Clare and my daughter Louise organised it all. We can’t praise the staff at the Hospice highly enough – the level of care and dignity they provided for my dad.

“They just made it bearable. When we brought him in, we didn’t think he would last a day – but he lasted two weeks.”

After raising about £1000 through their efforts, the family are keen to do more to support the Hospice.

And for some of them, that will include going back to Millport when the Hospice team and its supporters take part in the Sponsored Bike Ride next week.

Geraldine, 52, added: “We’ll be staying in touch and continuing to do fundraising work.”

Thank you to everyone who shared their story in relation to juggling precious priorities. We don't often think of ourselves as 'carers' because caring is just what we do! If you are caring for someone right now, why not click the map and take the first steps to sharing your story...

We would like to thank all the wonderful staff, parents and children at Nursery Times Clydebank who hosted a lovely Afternoon Tea to raise money for the Hospice. As you can see, Millie the Hospice Mascot had a fantastic time meeting all our mini-fundraisers. The efforts made by all children and staff over the past few weeks to organise the event are greatly appreciated. ...
